Various studies analysis showed that women who experienced menopause suffered from increased joint and spine pain. In comparison to other studies many few research papers are published in India on non-specific low back pain among post menopausal women. There is no study that combines the physiotherapy treatment exercises done conventionally and yoga asanas. Thus in order to improve the treatment outcomes and guide professionally, this study applies the combined treatment in post menopausal non specific low back pain women to check the effectiveness on pain and functional disability experienced at this stage.
Need of the study
